My divorce should be final by the end of 2022. How do I file my 2022 taxes?

I'm unsure how to file my taxes for 2022. Will I still file married, filing separately? or head of household? or single? I filed for divorce in December 2019, and it has literally taken three years, and I'm finally at the tail end.

My divorce should be final by the end of 2022. How do I file my 2022 taxes?

If your divorce is finalized by the end of 2022, then you will file as Single or as Head of Household if you have a qualifying dependent to claim.   If your divorce is not final by the end of 2022 your filing choices will be married filing jointly or married filing separately.

 

If your filing status changes, avoid using an old account that you previously used for a joint return.   It is too messy to get all of the "spouse" stuff out and will cause errors when you try to e-file.  Start a new online account if you are going to use online TurboTax.

 

 

Am I Head of Household?

If you qualify as Head of Household, when you enter your marital status (single or married filing separately) into MyInfo, and then enter your qualifying dependent, TurboTax will offer HOH as your filing status.
